TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to a method and device for generating an engineering topology of a digital substation and, in particular, to a method and device for generating an engineering topology of a digital substation that enable engineering tasks for a digital substation based on international standards to be performed at the system level rather than at the existing level of a unit device and enable power engineers to automatically generate an engineering topology of a digital substation conforming to complex international standards so as to make it possible to perform engineering design tasks for digital substations attracting worldwide attention in a rapid and accurate manner.

BACKGROUND ART

Background technologies of the present invention are disclosed in Korean Patent Gazette No. 0695021 (published on Mar. 8, 2007).

Recently, to protect and control substation devices connected to power systems, technologies for internationally standardized substation systems, which enable effective utilization of data through digitalization of data and networks based on information technology (IT), have been actively developed.

International standard IEC 61850 for substation automation systems deals with data models enabling all types of substation information to be represented in object data, and communication interfaces enabling message transmission and reception between intelligent electronic devices (IED) constituting the substation automation system, higher layer operation systems and gateways. Such data models and communication interfaces of a substation are described by Substation Configuration Description Language (SCL) in the form of standardized XML documents, which is specified in part 6 of IEC 61850 (IEC 61850-6). SCL documents are divided into four types of documents: IED Capability Description (ICD), Substation Specification Description (SSD), Substation Configuration Description (SCD) and Configured IED Description (CID). The ICD document contains information on data models and communication interfaces of an IED and is generated for each server device. The SSD document represents definitions and connection relationships of substation equipment based on single-line diagrams of the substation and arranges the information model needed for substation operation as logical nodes.

FIG. 1 is a conceptual diagram illustrating engineering of a substation automation system in compliance with the international standard IEC 61850. As shown in FIG. 1, IEC 61850 substation engineering includes combining ICD information describing the substation automation system with SSD information related to single-line diagrams, recording information regarding engineering settings for data transport of the substation automation system (e.g. reports and Generic Object Oriented Substation Events (GOOSE)), and creating the SCD file associating SSD logical nodes with corresponding IED logical nodes. Generation of IEC 61850 engineering documents including ICD, SSD and SCD information requires understanding of a vast amount of international standards and creation of complex XML documents. Because of this difficulty, IEC 61850 engineering documents are often automatically generated by entering the engineering design of a digital substation into a computer-programmed engineering tool, rather than manual processing of a user.

The generated IEC 61850 engineering documents cause an IED constituting the physical digital substation and a higher layer operation system to recognize XML documents and to carry out data models and communication services described in the documents, enabling them to perform information exchange and operation of the digital substation.

Currently, particularly in European countries and China, hundreds of IEC 61850 based digital substations have been completed or are under construction. In South Korea, new substations to be built after 2012 are expected to be constructed as an IEC 61850 based digital substation, starting with a Sancheong substation carried out as a pilot project. However, IEC 61850 substation engineering currently applied in the field deals with generation of SCD files using ICD information only except for SSD information describing the substation topology, i.e. connections made by switches. The SSD file, serving as an engineering design representing the substation topology related to connections between substation facilities of a digital substation, is complex in content, and implementation thereof requires clear understanding of the overall configuration of the digital substation and associated international standards. This means that it is almost impossible for an engineer to manually generate the engineering topology from drawings of a digital substation. Hence, to complete engineering tasks for a digital substation, it is essential to develop a method and device that enable automatic generation of an engineering topology conforming to international standards by use of single-line diagrams of a digital substation.

placing the connection node on the drawing when the search tag is set to “false” (unprocessed);

linking the terminal with the placed connection node; and

repeating, for all terminals of the object, the steps of examining the search tag, placing the connection node, and linking the terminal.

FIG. 2 illustrates a configuration of a device that generates an engineering topology of a digital substation according to an embodiment of the present invention. A description of the present invention is given below with reference to FIG. 2.

As shown in FIG. 2, the device 100 for generating an engineering topology of a digital substation according to the present embodiment includes a single line diagram generation module 10 to generate a single line diagram of a digital substation based on input information regarding a plurality of substation component devices and connections therebetween, a topology conversion module 30 to convert the single line diagram of the digital substation into an engineering topology conforming to international standards by use of conversion conditions stored in a topology component management module 20, a topology verification module 40 to verify whether the engineering topology is suitable for the digital substation based on the international standards, and an international standard file generation module 50 to generate a single line diagram engineering file of the digital substation as a system specification description (SSS) by use of the verified engineering topology.

Mode for Invention

For conversion into an engineering topology, the topology conversion module 30 establishes relations between connection nodes (CN) and terminals for individual objects included in a single-line diagram of a digital substation, and represents the relations on a drawing in the form of an engineering topology conforming to international standards.

In addition, for representation in the form of an engineering topology conforming to international standards, the topology conversion module 30 arranges objects included in the single-line diagram of the digital substation on the drawing, finds a connection node linked with a terminal of each object, checks the search tag of the found connection node, and, if the search tag is set to “false” (unprocessed), places the connection node on the drawing and links the terminal and the placed connection node.

The topology verification module 40 checks whether all terminals of each object contained in the generated engineering topology are linked with a connection node, checks whether an isolated object is present among objects contained in the single-line diagram of the digital substation, checks whether a duplicate connection node is present in the generated engineering topology, and checks whether the connection node at one end of a transmission line refers to another substation at the other end.

The topology component management module 20 manages generation rules for connection nodes and the number of terminals linked with each connection node.

Operations and actions of the present embodiment having the above configuration are described in detail with reference to FIGS. 2 to 5.

A digital substation is configured to freely disseminate information through a communication network. In the digital substation, engineering tasks are performed through software-centric activities using computer programs other than hardware-centric activities using cables transmitting electrical signals. To conform to international standards such as IEC 61850, the engineering design of a digital substation has to represent the flow of information at the level of the overall substation system. To this end, the present invention utilizes a single-line diagram representing the physical configuration of a digital substation to automatically convert the topology representing system connection information into an engineering representation conforming to international standards.

As shown in FIG. 2, first, the single line diagram generation module 10 generates a single line diagram(one line diagram) of a digital substation based on input information regarding a plurality of substation component devices and connection relations therebetween. That is, the user may enter information on substation component devices including a transformer, line, switch and bus bar through a graphical input screen using a single-line diagram of a regular substation. The single line diagram generation module 10 stores connection relations (including connection points) between the substation component devices and automatically generates a single line diagram of the digital substation by use of information regarding the substation component devices and connection relations therebetween. Here, attribute values of each component device may be entered, so that a related information model may be selected through the SCL file of an intelligent electronic device (IED) performing information provision, protection and control functions of the digital substation. When a group of one or more component devices of the single-line diagram are designated as a bay having a unique name, bay attribute values of each component device may be automatically stored.

The topology component management module 20 manages generation rules for connection nodes and the number of terminals linked with each connection node. The topology component management module 20 manages conditions for converting the single-line diagram of the digital substation into an engineering topology. Here, the topology representation of the digital substation indicates design of connection information by linking a configured substation facility with a terminal, which is owned by a substation facility model to link to another external substation facility model, with a connection node as the center. Hence, the topology component management module 20 manages the number of terminals connectable to connection nodes for each component device to be placed in the single-line diagram (e.g. two circuit breaker terminals, one bus-bar terminal) and generation rules for connection nodes (e.g. names and instances such as alphanumeric characters).

Next, the topology conversion module 30 converts the single line diagram of the digital substation into an engineering topology conforming to international standards by use of conversion conditions stored in the topology component management module 20. The topology conversion module 30 utilizes the rules for connection nodes and the number of terminals connectable to connection nodes for each component device stored in the topology component management module 20 to represent the digital substation in a new form by reinterpreting the single-line diagram of the digital substation generated by the single line diagram generation module 10 from the perspective of an engineering topology conforming to international standards such as IEC 61850.

More specifically, the topology conversion module 30 converts the single line diagram of the digital substation into an engineering topology conforming to international standards by establishing connection relations between connection nodes (CN) and terminals for individual objects included in the single-line diagram of the digital substation and representing the connection relations on a drawing in the form of an engineering topology conforming to international standards. This conversion process is described in detail with reference to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4.

FIG. 3 is a flowchart of a procedure for creating links between connection nodes (CN) and terminals for individual objects included in a single-line diagram of a digital substation in the process of converting single-line diagrams of the digital substation into an engineering topology conforming to international standards according to the embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 3, in operation S301, the topology conversion module 30 finds an object in a preset order on the single-line diagram and selects the found object, and, in operation S302, changes the search tag of the found object from “false” (unprocessed) to “true” (processed). Each object constituting the digital substation has a search tag (set to “false” by default) as an attribute, and the search tag of an object found by object search operation is set to “true”.

In operation S303, the topology conversion module 30 retrieves the number of terminals for the selected object from the topology component management module 20, and, in operation S304, places connection points between objects of the single-line diagram on the terminals, so that adjacent objects connected to the terminals are identified.

In operation S305, the topology conversion module 30 checks whether an object connected to the terminal of the selected object is present. If such an object is present, in operation S306, the topology conversion module 30 examines search tags of all objects connected to the selected object. If all the search tags are set to “false”, in operation S307, the topology conversion module 30 creates a connection node (CN) according to the preset generation rules, and, in operation S308, stores information regarding all objects connected to the terminal of the selected object at the created connection node and records the created connection node at the terminal of the selected object. Conversely, if a search tag set to “true” is present, in operation S309, the topology conversion module 30 finds a connection node having information on the selected object among created connection nodes, and, in operation S308, configures settings so that the found connection node is linked with the terminal of the selected object.

Thereafter, in operation S310, the topology conversion module 30 checks whether an unprocessed terminal is present among terminals of the selected object. If an unprocessed terminal is present, the topology conversion module 30 repeats operations S305 to S309. If all the terminals of the selected object have been processed, the procedure proceeds to operation S311. In operation S311, the topology conversion module 30 checks whether an unprocessed object is present. If an unprocessed object is present, the topology conversion module 30 repeats operations S301 to S310. If all the objects have been processed, the procedure ends. Through the above procedure, the topology conversion module 30 establishes connection relations between connection nodes (CN) and terminals for individual objects included in the single-line diagram of the digital substation in the process of converting single-line diagrams of the digital substation into an engineering topology conforming to international standards.

Next, with reference to FIG. 4, a description is given of a procedure for representing connection relations between connection nodes (CN) and terminals on a drawing in the form of an engineering topology conforming to international standards in the process of converting single-line diagrams of the digital substation into an engineering topology conforming to international standards.

In operation S401, the topology conversion module 30 places an object contained in the single-line diagram of the digital substation on the drawing, and, in operation S402, finds a connection node (CN) linked with a terminal of the object.

In operation S403, the topology conversion module 30 examines the search tag of the found connection node linked with the terminal. If the search tag of the found connection node is set to “false” (unprocessed, i.e. the found connection node is not placed on the drawing yet), in operation S404, the topology conversion module 30 places the connection node on the drawing, and, in operation S405, sets the search tag of the connection node to “true”. In operation S406, the topology conversion module 30 links the terminal to the placed connection node. If the search tag of the found connection node is not set to “false” in operation S403, the procedure proceeds to operation S406.

Thereafter, in operation S407, the topology conversion module 30 checks whether an unprocessed terminal is present among terminals of the object. If an unprocessed terminal is present, the topology conversion module 30 repeats operations S403 to S406. If all the terminals have been processed, the procedure proceeds to operation S408. In operation S408, the topology conversion module 30 checks whether an unprocessed object is present. If an unprocessed object is present, the topology conversion module 30 repeats operations S401 to S407. If all the objects have been processed, the procedure ends. Through the above procedure, the topology conversion module 30 represents connection relations between connection nodes and terminals on a drawing in the form of an engineering topology conforming to international standards in the process of converting single-line diagrams of the digital substation into an engineering topology conforming to international standards.

In addition, after the topology conversion module 30 converts the single-line diagram of the digital substation into an engineering topology conforming to international standards, the topology verification module 40 verifies whether the engineering topology is suitable for the digital substation based on the international standards. This verification is described in detail with reference to FIG. 5. FIG. 5 is a flowchart of a method for verifying whether an engineering topology is suitable for the digital substation based on international standards according to the embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 5, in operation S501, the topology verification module 40 examines whether all terminals of each object contained in the generated engineering topology are linked with a connection node, and, in operation S502, examines whether an isolated object is present among objects contained in the single-line diagram of the digital substation. This is to find an error in topology composition by checking whether an isolated object (object not linked with another object) is present among objects constituting the substation such as a transmission line, transformer, load, circuit breaker and switch.

Thereafter, in operation S503, the topology verification module 40 examines whether a duplicate connection node is present in the generated engineering topology, and, in operation S504, examines whether the connection node at one end of a transmission line refers to another substation at the other end.

Through the above procedure, the topology verification module 40 verifies whether the engineering topology is suitable for the digital substation based on international standards.

Finally, after the topology verification module 40 verifies whether the engineering topology is suitable for the digital substation based on international standards, the international standard file generation module 50 utilizes the verified engineering topology to generate a single line diagram engineering file for the digital substation as a system specification description (SSS).

As described hereinabove, according to the present invention, the method and device that generate an engineering topology of a digital substation allow engineering tasks for a digital substation based on international standards to be performed at the system level rather than at the existing level of a unit device, and enable power engineers to automatically generate an engineering topology of a digital substation conforming to complex international standards, making it possible to perform engineering design tasks for digital substations attracting worldwide attention in a rapid and accurate manner. The method and device that generate an engineering topology of a digital substation enable automatic generation of an engineering topology of the digital substation without separate tasks by use of existing single-line diagrams of the digital substation that can be readily drawn by substation engineers.

According to the present invention, analyzing and representing a digital substation in an engineering topology perspective may create an environment in which electric power flowing through the substation and streams of associated digital information can be seen by not only human engineers but also a computer system. Hence, higher layer operation systems and gateway systems monitoring the overall power of the digital substation and information flows therein may be independently implemented using the engineering topology information without separate tasks. Additionally, to build a supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) system serving as an immediate higher layer of the digital substation in accordance with international standards such as IEC 61970, the engineering topology of the digital substation may be adjusted to realize an engineering topology of the new SCADA system.
